Join the Team Behind Industry-Leading Structures
At A&S Landscape, we design and manufacture innovative covered spaces used across schools, healthcare environments, and commercial sites throughout the UK. As demand for our products continues to grow, we're looking for a talented and detail-focused R&D Designer to help drive product innovation and support the development of our next generation of structures.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys turning concepts into manufacturable solutions, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and takes pride in producing accurate, high-quality technical designs.
The Role
As an R&D Designer, you'll be responsible for creating and developing new product designs, refining existing systems, and producing detailed 3D models and manufacturing drawings for a wide range of steel structures.
Working closely with our Engineering, Manufacturing, and Project teams, you'll play a key role in bringing innovative ideas to life while ensuring designs are practical, cost-effective, and production-ready.
No two projects are the same, so you'll need to be comfortable managing multiple design tasks simultaneously while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.
What You'll Be Doing
· Creating 3D models and visuals using SolidWorks or similar CAD software
* Supporting the development of new products from concept through to production
* Designing steel structures and fabricated components for manufacture and installation
* Producing accurate technical documentation to facilitate commercial assessments of products
* Reviewing designs for manufacturability, compliance, and cost efficiency
* Collaborating with manufacturing teams to resolve design and production challenges
* Managing multiple projects and design requests in a high-volume environment
* Participating in product testing, evaluation, and continuous improvement initiatives
* Maintaining design standards, version control, and engineering documentation
What We’re Looking For
We're looking for a technically strong designer who combines creativity with engineering precision.
* Strong experience using SolidWorks or equivalent 3D CAD software
* Experience designing fabricated steel structures, components, or assemblies
* Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality
* Understanding of manufacturing, fabrication and installation processes
* Experience working within a fast-paced, high-volume design environment
* Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills
* Ability to manage multiple complex projects and competing deadlines
* Experience within structural steel, construction products, canopies, architectural metalwork, or related industries
* Understanding of engineering calculations and structural design principles
* Familiarity with design portals and document control processes
The Person
You’ll be someone who:
* Enjoys solving complex design challenges
* Takes ownership of your work and delivers to a high standard
* Has a naturally inquisitive mindset and enjoys innovation
* Thrives on accuracy and precision
* Is organised and comfortable managing a high workload
* Works well both independently and as part of a collaborative team
What We Offer
* Competitive salary based on experience
* Opportunity to work on innovative and technically challenging projects
* Ongoing training and professional development
* Career progression opportunities within a growing organisation
* Supportive and collaborative working environment
* The opportunity to see your designs move from concept to installation across the UK
If you're passionate about engineering design, enjoy working with steel structures, and want to be part of a business that values innovation and technical excellence, we'd love to hear from you.
